The gloves for crossing the alps, and also bombing down them.

If you're a control freak who demands comfortable and protective gloves, while maintaining absolute command over your bike as you guide it down the mountain, the Gore Bike Wear Alp-X SO Light Gloves are your zero-compromise answer.

Comfort features like gel padding in the palms absorb trail vibrations and reduce wrist strain, while knuckle protection shields the backs of your hands from light branch impact. Silicone fingertips keep you in control of your shifters, and the low-profile softshell body is highly weather-resistant. So, your hands will remain warm and shielded from the chill winds above the treeline.

The Gore Bike Wear Alp-X SO Light Gloves are available in six sizes from Small to XXX-Large and in the colors Black and Black/red.
